    [​IMG] Well the negative remarks in the "I Love USA (not)" post spurred this topic, but I wanted to post it before, just never remembered. I heard many negative remarks about London especially from people in the chatroom. But people came up with them on the boards sometimes before as well.

    I have a friend who used to live in London. The worst part of London as I under stand it. And she's hot! No misstake about that so from that I've got to say that London is not all that bad.

    One hot chick of two isnt good. Devon seems to be a shitty place ;)

    Here where I live atleast 7/10 are hotter than a Sahara summer :D
    One reason that I am always disapointed when I travel abroad is the low quality of their females, went to Birmingham once, didnt turn my head after a woman once. :aww:

    Hope you all see the humour in this post and dont bash me for being a malechauvunstic bastard :)

    Sweden is good, Archangel, I agree...

    Bergen in Norway is the best though, but beer is outrageously expensive :(


    There are loads of cute girls in London, they are all over the place, especially at the minute (in the sun. I am stuck indoors revising - hehe only two more exams though :) :) :) :) :) )

    Birmingham is not a nice place (used to live there abouts), though they are opening a Harvery Nicks and Selfridges, so might get better...

    [​IMG] Yeah Norwegian chicks. I lived with one once for half a year. She was starting on a medicine education in denmark (since it is easier to get that education in Denmark than Norway). And I was at my first year of Mol.biology. She was cute. Especially when she wasn't used to drinking danish beer. or beer at all. heh.

    J your a malechauvanistic bastard. i think the ratio could be more than one in two. here goes. My girlfriend is good looking. her best mate is a model at the age of 15, her other best mate when in london was asked out b thirty guys in one night cos she is that beautiful. My friend taz, won the prettiest female award in our school yearbook, my other friend izzy also does part time modelling work, and elaine my third and final female best mate has been in the next catalouge.

    Birmingham is crap
    London is crapper.
    Because all the decent woman are in the south west.

    British models?

    Isn't the only requirement there that they have all their teeth?

    Pretty girls in London? Well yes, but they are almost certainly not English...

    no, it's fluffle, they mustn't have fluffle. :love:

    london's great, as long as you don't have to pay rent or travel on the tube. But everyone should experience living in London, just for a few years to appreciate what they've got/will have elsewhere.

    mmm... circle line... ;)

    [​IMG] Ha! You should experience the horror of bus rides on always late, overcrowded, un-airconditioned (not to mention slow) buses here. I miss the tube a lot. It's so much more efficient means of public transport...

    Of course the occasional suicide on the rails and/or bomb slow it up a bit from time to time (and it's a hell in summer), but I'd still take the tube over anything else! At least it's fast, if nothing else. Which is more than I can say for our buses.

    Agreed. The underground is quite efficient compared to buses back home... But still it gets to me sometimes when they close the whole station to repair one escalator or when someone thinks that catching tube mice is a good idea.

    What is flaffle? And welcome back the god. :1eye:

    Piccadilly is the worst. Full of American (;)) Tourists with Harrods bags full of teabags... :)

    And the district line - thats the worst too. And the Victoria. Jubilee sucks, Northern is always crap (and smells like a urinal)...

    Having said that, when I go back home (away from uni in London) I do always get really cross upon stumbling out of the pub at half eleven, to find that they have no underground, and the last bus left 2 hours ago... (drunken six mile walk results)
